Results for: Amplitude

Amplitude refers to the amount by which something is displaced fromthe middle of its periodic motion. It can mean the maximumdisturbance from the neutral position of a wave. I…t represents theintensity of a vibration, e.g. the loudness of a sound. (MORE)

It is the highest value of the amplitude, called the peak value..
Scroll down to related links and look at "RMS voltage, peak voltage and peak-to-peak voltage"..
Look at the… figure in the middle below the headline "RMS voltage, peak voltage and peak-to-peak voltage". (MORE)

Amplitude is the magnitude of change in the oscillating variable, with each oscillation, within an oscillating system. Sound waves are oscillations in atmospheric pressure and… their amplitudes (called the sound pressure) are proportional to the change in pressure during one oscillation.. (MORE)

Amplitude can be calculated from either of the following formulas x = asin(wt + Ï) if the motion is along x-axis or y = acos(wt + Ï) if the motion is along y-axis. Thus,… amplitude is the the maximum extent of a vibration or oscillation, measured from the position of equilibrium. (MORE)

That depends on what discipline you're studying. In Physics: the maximum extent of a vibration or oscillation, measured from the position of equilibrium. â¢ the maxim…um difference of an alternating electrical current or potential from the average value. In Astronomy: the angular distance of a celestial object from the true east or west point of the horizon at rising or setting. In Mathematics: the angle between the real axis of an Argand diagram and a vector representing a complex number. (MORE)

The question is not correctly phrased, Infrared is electromagnetic radiation which consists of waves. Amplitude is a measure of the maximum "strength" or height of the wave an…d therefore will have a whole range of values from 0 upwards. Infrared does not have a specific range of amplitude however it will have a range of frequencies ( visible light Red end 4 x 10 14 Hertz - 3 x 10 11 Hertz Microwaves ) and wavelength (visible light Red end 750 nanometres - 1000000 nm nanometres Microwaves) (MORE)
